Hello everybody, welcome back to Daily Easy English expression, the podcast. Today's expression, oh boy, this is a perfect word that you can use to describe most of the people in government.
Slick. He is Slick.
She is Slick. Now, Slick can have two common definitions and one would be to look very sharp.
Have a nice suit. Have a nice watch. very clean crisp white shirt the haircut is perfect we could say that James Bond looks very slick but the other idea of slick would be slippery slippery like ice But not like ice, like a snake.
Yes and many politicians they tend to be like snakes.
We know that they have done something wrong, something immoral, something unethical, they they lied, they cheated, they took money.
We know they did something, but somehow with their words and their good looks and their nice voice, they escape trouble.
They slip away from trouble.
They are slick. Now I'm from America.
America's got a lot of slick politicians.
Does your country? Check out the dialogue.
How can Bill Clinton still be popular?
He cheated on his wife.
He's slick! Nothing sticks to him.
He's like a snake, huh?
Straight from the Garden of Eden.
There you go, Bill Clinton.
Yeah, they do describe him as being a very slick politician.
Nothing sticks to him.
He is slippery, he escapes, trouble, scandal, no matter what the situation, even though everybody knows what he did.
People still like him.
Clinton. So we can say people are very dumb or bill Clinton is very slick.
Actually I think people are just dumb but most people will say bill Clinton is very slick.
He's like a snake. And what snake is the most popular or rather maybe the most infamous snake in all the world.
It goes back to the Bible, the Garden of Eden.
That's the American pronunciation, the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve were created by God and they met, well, Eve met the serpent, the snake in the tree.
Slick like a snake.
Willy, Bill Clinton.
I don't know. You give me 100 politicians, I believe I can show you 99 snakes.
